user interface - Where do I put my Office Add-In configuration page(s)? -
I am writing a COM add-in for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This add-in has some user-configurable settings (about the full page of them ... or maybe even more than the same page). What is the standard way for a user to present them? Under Tools-> Options via a custom page? (How?) Under a custom button on the custom toolbar? A special menu for add-ins?
If this was Outlook, then I would add a custom property page. I was very convinced that I could easily do some other Google applications like Google, but I'm not clearly searching for the right conditions. The signal is also very welcome to improve my search!
Update :
I realized that your From the question that you are targeting Office versions and can still include in 2003, for example, the Tools menu has moved to 2007.
You can still answer your question by looking at the starting point of the migration mentioned from 2003-2007: Using the Settings for the Sample 2003 Add-in, click the add-in Is located in the specific sub menu , as shown in Figure 7 .
Your first stop should be about user interface questions for current and future versions of the office (i.e. 2007 and above), especially you will find them there.
The noticeable value of this is that this guide is not equal to a huge difference, which is unfortunate, which is almost a traditional friendly competition between the office team and others
Anyone can find out the initial guidelines from there, for example, recommendations about the scenario for custom work, as explicitly suggested, with the difference is the user Tings, your need to offer citation:
Create a custom task pane if ...
To present your solution about data about a document Need is visible, in a non-modal fashion, use the custom work pane [...]
You can see the simple migration in the section Can find a good starting point about where the current 2007 release is a simple 2003 migration Micro UI design has been detected in a phased manner from the perspective; Not surprisingly, this add-in features also have settings, so your needs are addressed, though only on the side.
Reproduction of this section will be a bit longer and I'm not sure that it will be legal to reproduce the inline images there, especially to start Picture 9 Check it out.
You can take it forward based on your special scenario, good luck!
